3Shape Trios Scanner

Say goodbye to the days of messy, uncomfortable impression trays. An intraoral scanner is a small, handheld device that digitally captures a precise 3D model of your teeth and gums in just minutes — no goopy materials, no gagging, and no waiting. Beyond treatment planning for crowns, bridges, aligners, and implants, these scans also serve as a powerful monitoring tool, allowing us to track changes in your oral health over time and catch early signs of wear, shifting, or decay before they become bigger issues. The detailed 3D images also make it easier for you to see exactly what we see, so we can walk you through your oral health in a way that’s clear and easy to understand. Digital files are sent instantly to the lab, reducing turnaround times and improving the fit and accuracy of restorations. For our patients, it all adds up to a more comfortable visit, better communication, and a higher standard of care from the moment you sit in the chair.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Cone Beam Computed Tomography

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography), providing this service in our office means we can see your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and surrounding structures in stunning 3D detail — something traditional 2D X-rays simply can’t provide. This advanced imaging allows us to diagnose issues more accurately, plan treatments like dental implants and root canals with greater precision, and catch problems early before they become bigger concerns. The scan takes only seconds, is completely painless, and uses significantly less radiation than a conventional CT scan — giving you faster, safer, and more thorough care all in one visit.
